Rockstar Games announces a September 17th release date for the console editions of Grand Theft Auto V, apologizing for the delay to the open-world action sequel, and saying: "trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require." No announcement has yet been made about a PC edition of the game, but for reference, a Windows version of Grand Theft Auto IV was only first announced a few months after the console editions shipped.

Unless they gimp two of the characters somehow, I think that would introduce an absolute nightmare for design and testing.

I really want to play GTA-V, but I refuse to buy it for my PS3 (which already can't play GTA-IV decently), and I sure as hell won't buy a new 360 just for it. (especially not when it'll be a few months before the new consoles come out, apparently.)

So unless they release it on the PC (or the new consoles are backwardly compatible), I'm going to have to miss out.
